Hanukkah is a Jewish festival of lights, a celebration of candles that are lit by Jews all over the world in honor of the miracle that occurred during the consecration of the temple after the victory of the Maccabean army over the army of king Antiochus in 164 BC.according to legend, entering the destroyed, desecrated temple in Jerusalem, the Jews found a small jar of oil, which was enough to maintain the fire for only one day. However, miraculously, the fire in the Golden temple menorah burned for eight days. Exactly as much as was required for the preparation of new, purified and consecrated oil. Since then, the fluttering light of candles, wonderful aromas, and faith in miracles bring a holiday to every Jewish home and remind of the courage and heroism of the ancestors of the Jewish people.
Transcarpathia is a multi-ethnic region, so its culinary traditions are striking in their diversity: every nation that lived on this generous land left several popular recipes to their descendants.

Romanians (self-name-Romin) are a national minority that lives in Transcarpathia in the valleys of the Tisa and Apsha rivers, in the villages of Bila Tserkva, Sredne Vodiane, Vodica Pleiuc, Nizhnyaya Apsha, Glubokoe Potok, Topchino and in the village of Solotvino. These are descendants of Wallachian shepherds who came to the Eastern Carpathians from the Balkans in the XIV century. Most of them eventually assimilated with the Rusyn population, and some settled in the Tisza valley as free settlers and, following the example of local residents, began to engage in agriculture. In the XIV-XVI centuries, the Romanians of the Tisza valley, as Orthodox, were a kind of intermediary in the cultural contacts of the Rusyns of the region with the Balkan Orthodoxy, which is documented both by Transcarpathian literary monuments of that time, and wall paintings of wooden churches of Maramoroshchini. Orthodoxy held its position in villages with a Romanian population until the middle of the XVIII century.
